Echo Edger, PE-260

Guys, Is the echo pe-260 a night and day difference over the pe-230? I used to have the 230 but thought it was a little underpowered. I was wondering if the 260 was that much more or should I go bigger? 311?

You will notice a difference in power with the 260. It depends on exactly what you are edging. Very bad overgrowth (hasnt been edged in months etc) vs well groomed each week. The 311 is a beast. I believe its just above 30cc engine. Either choice (260 or 311) should suit your needs fine.
